Two days delayed. Apparently this is normal- flights are delayed all the time, but we are on pins and needles waiting to get there and get started ! We have been assured as soon as the weather clears, we will be on the next flight over to Patriot Hills, Antarctica.

The issue at this point is visibility- but extraordinary winds can also stop the plane from making a landing on the ice runway at Patriot.
The map above show where we are...and where we need to go ! We have been getting calls every two hours updating us on flight status- and the news seems positive-so for now its all about waiting and being patient...

"My class is a group of 20 kindergarten age children and they are fascinated by what Kevin, Ray and Richard are doing. We got alot of snow here in Ottawa today and when we went outside some of our kids got sleds and were prentending to be Ray, Kevin and Richard on their trek. It was very cute. I also have the Playmobile Artic set out (close enough to antartic scenery) and the kids are role playing the trek with the little figures. It's so excitting for us to have some modern day superhero's that the kids can look up to."
